G Jeff or J Jeff either either I feel like I feel like it made wall it may wane in popular like mass market popularity I feel like it's popular with a discerning group of

Pro creators discerning group of pro creators. Discerning group of Hillbilly? Yeah. Yeah. So you know those... Yeah. That Alabama crowd, they're all about the Jeffrey. Yeah. Like I don't meet anybody named Barbara who's under the age of 50. I know one other Barbara.

You shit. Oh, I'm saying Gustavo. Yeah. You can call me Gus. That's all in most civil fours. That's all in most civil fours. Yeah, I don't care about making it convenient for other people anymore.

Fuck it. What do I care? Ooh, before that it was like, Gus is easier for other people. Say, fuck it. What the fuck do I care? Gustavo, that's my actual name. You're in your 40s. Congratulations. That's because is that a sign of? Good job, oh, that's my actual name. You're in your 40s, congratulations.

Yeah, I had that. Does that have that from birth? Okay, yeah. It takes on a different, I was born late, so. It takes on a different edge when you get older. I can see it in them What what should I expect to my 30s? 30s are awesome. Yeah, I don't know. It was just fun. Yeah, it's everything still works. Yeah, 30s are like you're probably doing better in your career than in your 20s You feel invincible. You're not starting to slow down yet

You're just starting to think about shit like long-term health and taxes and 401Ks, but you can still put it off a little bit. Yeah, they're just gonna put awesome retirement plans though. What's that? You really just been put off retirement plans. No, and I, if you're responsible, I'm talking about your average 30%. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Yeah, you got me to start retirement in my 20s. Yes, I did. I tried to gain teens. Yeah, you did. Yeah, long-term health stuff is a thing I think about almost every day now. Yeah. Like I've got to think where if I turn a certain way when I'm walking, my left hip hurts a little bit and I'm like, oh, that's the start of something bad. Cancer. Rotate. Yeah, care.

Cancer. That's like, oh, that's going to be something that's going to bother me immensely in a decade or so. Did you have more sex in your 20s or 30s? Well, what's anything's greater than zero, right? Well, let me think, that's marriage based, right? I had way more sex in my second marriage with my first marriage, for sure. Yeah. I love you, Millie.

Oh, right. She's always doing it. She's always doing it in case of a moment. One is greater than zero. Yeah, man. Yeah. Thanks. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there.

She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there.

She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there.

She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. She's always there. Monday, I watched the first episode of it. And it reminded me of you. And it's like, oh, I need, I really need to go back and watch it because it seems like season one is such an interesting concept. So season one was phenomenal. More so that it was based on a true story. I admit, the only thing I know about season two of the terror is that I know George the K is in it, I believe, right? It takes place in an internment camp or around that time in World War two. And so it's focused on Japanese Americans and I guess their mistreatment during World War II of which was plentiful. And then also that it has no production or thematic ties to season one, right?

It doesn't seem like a encapsulated story. Kind of like a character. It makes me think of like American horror story, where it's like a unique story that they tell just self-capsulate in each season. How far? First thing was good, it was slow. They're definitely, it's like, oh, they're setting up everything.

Is it supernatural? Yes, there's supernatural element to it. Okay. Yeah, so it was definitely supernatural. It seems kind of the same, where you talk about like, I still haven't seen super one, where it's like kind of grounded in reality,

but then they add like the supernatural element in on top of it. But, and then also the supernatural element, it, I mean, it helps with some convenient tropes, but a lot of it, you're not sure if it's real or imagined, and then it's really more of a device to help tell the larger story, which is how those people got lost in the ice and what may have happened to them, and what may have happened to them was only partially due to the supernatural shit, if that makes sense. So, I liked it because it wasn't a supernatural story. It was a story that had, it was like a true horror story that had supernatural elements,

I would say. So I would be interested to see if season two follows that path, or if it just goes conveniently like horror movie. Yeah, like no one's supernatural. In the, like none of the characters in the show are aware of anything supernatural, but as the viewer, you see like

weird stuff happening around them. Okay. Does that make sense? Yeah, yeah, for sure. I'll definitely watch it because I was such a fan of the first one. Yeah, second episodes today. Okay. So I'll check it out. Is AMC, right?

Yeah. Okay. AMC. Good, sir. I'm always looking for something good to watch. Do you watch it on the AMC app or do you watch it on like, who? I watch it on TV. Oh, you have cable?

I have cable. Oh, me too. You really are, gosh. I'm just out. Seriously, you and I were both early cord cutters. I went like seven or eight years of that cable when I lived. Yeah, when the writers try to cap in, I didn't have cable for years.

Cut my cord at first. You were my both. Yeah, congratulations by the way. Very good. And I'm still dragging mine around. It's super hard to hide in shorts. And I, I,

a lot of them I don't have my own show. I was really laughing at that at the inside. But I've gone back to cable a couple I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, how can I express this? It seems like it's more convenient. Like it's an older system when you're using cable TV. Yeah. So it's like you know that you can record or when you do shit, like it's gonna work. You can schedule it all out. Yeah. The one thing I do really like about cable

and having cable because I did it, my last apartment I was at, it was like included in my apartment, is just having a TV on. Not necessarily watching anything, just having noise, especially if you're a little alone. It's nice to just have like stuff going on in the background. Makes the mundane a little less sad when you're lonely, I guess.

A little bit. You don't hear the ghosts. Yeah. I think that might scare you. But then the only problem I have is like with like you talked about AMC, like the AMC app, like I don't like having to wait till the next day to watch something. That AMC app sucks, see that way.

It's not great. I have a question for you though about Hulu, and then maybe you can answer because you're much smarter than I am. All right. So I have Hulu without commercials, right? Like the whatever it is, $13.99 a month, you pay, or I have no idea what I pay,

but it's just commercial for you Hulu. So I can watch an episode. It's $6 more to play to get commercial for you. I, my girlfriend has Hulu live TV, and that's like 40 or 50 bucks a month, but Hulu live TV still has commercials. I understand it has to have commercials during a live programming, but if I watch an episode of Veronica Mars on my $14 Hulu, I don't have commercials.

So you have she watches it. You have to have live TV and then you can pay another $6 a month to get live TV plus no commercials on the VOD stuff. I'll just keep logging one of us out in the other back in. So that, yeah, it's like you have to have one. Okay. You have to have that. You have to have that on a guard services. If you get live TV, it doesn't automatically include

no commercial on VOD. Thank you for making that clear to me. Because like, you could have just gone to like their page with all of their different. I would like to do that when you're right here. I am right here. You're a wealth of knowledge. You've been my knowledge base since 1998, guys.

Knowledge base, Jesus. I have that issue with who, because I watch a lot of Hulu, I've been watching knowledge base since 1998 guys. I heard you're based Jesus. I have that issue with who because I watch a lot of Hulu. I've been watching Bachelor in Paradise, which I want to talk to Jeff about. Okay, let's do it. But it's one of that one. Okay, go ahead, sorry. It's so you know the Bachelor series.

Yeah, obviously they take previous contestants who've been on the show and put them all on the island. Sluddiest, most outrageous contestants. Yeah, the fan favorites or fan, I guess, least favorites. Love the Hayden, we're love the Lovens. Yeah. Okay. But people who make the most interesting reality,

you're probably gonna drop pants the fastest on this thing. Nice. Yeah. Why haven't I been on that? I don't know, yes. You tell me. Would S-review okay with that? We're probably out.

She didn't have to go. She'd probably be fine. But that, like, I don't know why. There's some TV that I love, even though it's so fucking bad. And this is like bad TV. Do you like Bachelor of Pertus? I fucking love it. Okay. Yeah.

I find Bachelor of Pertus is a little too scuzzy for me to get into. What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? Like it's a little too, it's a little, the tension's are a little too, like it's hard to say. Well, so I would,

of those shows that are, the current iterations of those shows, I would say, Temptation Island is the best. Love Island is the second best. And I include all love islands, Australia, England, and US, even though Australia is the best, then England and the US. Although US is quite good. Then I would put bachelor in paradise, then I would put X on the beach, which is just-

Never heard of that. 45 minutes of dog shit with a brawl on. Like it's, or like a speedo. It's terrible. But in the first episode of every X on the beach, somebody will fuck and fight, like instantly. And maybe at the same time. They're okay. Do they fight and fuck at the same time? Yeah. So like, whereas like, Tim Tish and Island and Love Island, they're great

because they're... Tim Tish and Island, is that where people who are in relationships go? Yeah, to test their relationships. That's... Fuck, it's the best. The most recent season was phenomenal. I actually just brought it back and had been on the TV in like 11 years. I looked up the synopsis for X on the best. The most recent season was phenomenal. I actually just brought it back

and had been on the TV in like 11 years. I looked up the synopsis for X on the beach. I just wanna read it here. Yeah. A group of famous singles head to a tropical island for a chance at love, but Paradise doesn't last long and the stars, former flames,

wash ashore to break up their good time. Here's, and here's, let me add to that. Let me add to that panache. It's an MTV show. Yeah, that's an MTV show. So you know it's terrible. And then the people that they cast it with are people from like road rules and the challenge

and all those like weird MTV like activity reality TV shows. It very rarely do you see people that come from other reality TV shows. It's usually like the trashy of the reality shows. So it's like the trashiest of the trashy. And whereas like Temptation Island and love island are quite salacious and quite psychologically fun to watch people ruin their lives and fuck with each other,

there's still a pretense of a show there, X on the beach, and I feel like Bachelor of Paradise is like one notch above that. It's just put people in a villa with alcohol and encourage them to fight and... And every now and then bring in a new person that's going to every once and while bring in a new person. Yeah, so I'm having I want to like bachelor paradise. I think the reason I like it so much is because I know a lot

of the people on the show from the previous bus. I've never watched the bachelor. Okay, yeah, there's a lot of people from this most previous season who are on this one. Yeah, I've yet to visit bachelor nation. So I don't know. It's definitely something to get into. Is it? I imagine I would appreciate it more. I only watch the first two episodes. How far are into it are you?

I want to say there's three or four episodes out now. Okay, okay. Maybe you actually only two. I'll catch up because I'm missing Love Island pretty bad right now. Yeah, it's a good replacement for you. You get those shows like Love Island Gus, five days a week. That's gonna say, it sounds like these shows have such quick production turnaround. They

have like six seasons a year for each of them. Love Island in particular. I know Bachelor in Paradise has two episodes a week that are like an hour and a half each. Yeah, there's a lot of content. Love Island I think is yeah five days a week and it's I think put out the next day that it's filmed. Yeah. Love Island is five days a week in the US and for I I don't know, like 20 or 30 episodes, Love Island UK and Love Island Australia, you guys are prolific. I know you do the opposite on your sitcoms,

but that show comes on seven days a week. One of the days is an hour long recap, so six new episodes, one recap every week, and they go for 50 to 60 episodes a season. Damn. Yeah, that's like the big brother format. It's the exact same as the big one from that. It ends and you show everything in between.

Yeah, it's fantastic. What I like about and I think we talked about it last time. Well, what I like about Love Island is that they don't really have camera men or anything or crews. It's just these cameras that are placed all around the villa. It sounds like Big Brother. Yeah, it's like Big Brother. I guess I never watched Big Brother, so I never.

But the idea of like the premise of the show, Gus is like they take six guys and six girls. They don't know each other. They put them in a mansion on the beach together. Like in the US, Gus, is they take six guys and six girls. They don't know each other. They put them in a mansion on the beach together. In the US, it's Fiji, it's like in a Spanish island in the UK. Fiji's not in the US. A US version of the show, it's Fiji, in the British movie. What?

And a Australian show, it's some of Spanish island. But anyway, they put them in there, and then they'll literally, they'll stick six guys in a swimming pool up to like their ankles in short shorts showing off their junk and they're They're all ripped and stupid as all hell and they'll stand there and then they'll parade six women out that are similarly dressed and Brilliant one at a time and one at a time and they'll go Miranda you have six men in front of you Which one do you want to be your boyfriend and should go? six men in front of you, which one do you want to be your boyfriend? And she'll go, I'll take that guy.

And then he comes over and he's for boyfriend. And then they sleep in the same bed that night. And for the next week, they're dating. Jesus. And they all sleep in the same bed in the same room. They have a big ass bedroom with like, like six beds and they're all in bed. 100% banging.

They're all banging and they will have absolutely have sex. And the creepy part is there's cameras in there too. Yeah. Like there's cameras everywhere. You say it's creepy but you watch it. Yeah, the creepy part is watching it. Yeah I do and it's great. But it's also great too.

I've got the one filming it. Cause they're like the one filming it. They'll also, or they'll like bring a guy out and they'll be like four girls or like the six girls and they'll go which one? Like if you're interested in this guy in Rika or whatever his name is, step forward and like three girls will step forward and then he'll get to pick from the girls or nobody steps forward.

And then it's like, the guy nobody wants and's up getting partnered with the last girl, she's like, it's like in the Simpsons when they have the Bachelor auction and Mo comes out and they like walk straight to the reject area. Because they all span and go straight. I don't know. I don't know.

And picks you though. Are you allowed to just go home? No, you have to live with a ship. Well, they win like 125 grand or something if they make it to the end of the show. You got to bang your weight to 125 grand. That's even better at the end. The couple that wins, like spoilers, if you didn't watch the US Love Island,

you should have, it was Zack and Elizabeth. Then they go to, like Zack and Elizabeth, and they go like Elizabeth, here's a check for a hundred twenty five thousand dollars You can keep it or share it with your with the guy and she's like I guess I'll share it or she can just be like I don't fuck you hit the bricks buddy. I got all the money Because love it's a love test. Did you really fall in love? Because really really fall in love with Zach or was she just in it for the money? How long are they together?

It's like weeks. So would you spend $62,500 on someone that you've known for three weeks? The answer should always be no. I totally agree. Well, I think, right? It's longer than three weeks. It's like a couple months. I think it's like three weeks in the US.

It's longer than the British, but the season was funky. It's three weeks of love worth more than $62,000. Okay, when you met Est Esther, three weeks later, would you have given her that cash? I think we were engaged. So you give her half of your cash forever. Well, also you got to think she likes it. You've given it away more than that.

If you're a reasonably intelligent young 20 something who is probably a fitness, like a workout person or an Instagram model or whatever. These people are usually like, I'm a fitness gym guy, personal trainer, that was called yeah. We're the homestead gym guy. I like this gym guy, yeah.

I'm a fitness gym guy or I'm an Instagram model and I sell detox tea or whatever. The long play is yes, obviously we're in love and we're gonna pick each other over the money and then share the money and then also share the brand deals. And the long, I think that those people are thinking about the long tail. How much more money am I gonna get

off the story of this? I don't know. Also, it's how they're gonna be perceived, I think by the public as well. Like if you're the asshole that takes the money after being in love on the show and front of all these people, you're kind of a ticket. But you can play the heel.

I mean, I guess I'm okay with that. Like I'd be fine. Sure, you'd be okay with that. But. Sounds like golden balls. Do you ever see that, sir? What are you talking about? What's golden balls?

Did you make that up right now, sir? No, it's golden balls. Golden balls. There's something like, you get to the end and then there's just two people left. I know I'd never seen the show. I've just seen the endings. But if you agree that you'll both share the money then you share it.

Oh yeah. And then if one of them takes it and one of them says that they'll share it, the person who takes it gets it and it's like this weird mind games at the end. That's how they end to temptation Island. And they literally have these balls in their hands that you can smash on the ground to say if you keep it or not. I saw one guy win it in a great way before. He was just, he just said to the other guy, I'm going to take it and I'll split it with you. And you just said he would,

you take it. If you say you'll take it, none of us will get it. I'm definitely going to take it. And then the other guy just said he would share it. Because of both say take, none of them get it right. Exactly. Yeah. Oh, brutal. He was like, I'm taking it. And no one had ever done that. He's like, I'm not lying. Nothing you say is going to change my mind. Like, this is what's going to happen. If both people might shed and there's a risk of someone to get it all.

Mm-hmm. Really? Yeah, something that I love about Bachelor in Paradise is there's so many characters on this season that are so cringey to watch, but in a good way. Like, there's this one guy named Cam. Who? Oh yeah, I know Cam. Yeah, if this gives you any context,

he's a white guy that likes to rap. Well, he's the guy that was like, he kept getting in trouble for being like, double crossing girls, right? No, that's someone else. That's Blake. Blake, yeah, Blake, I'm trying to. That's the guy who like slept with a bunch of the contestants

on the show and then realized that they were all gonna be on this season of Bachelor in Paradise. And then that's a deal with them all. And like, it's trying to be all like good guys. Like he literally, there are two girls on the show that he went and got dumped by the Bachelor, I guess, on her season, went to one of the other girls and slept with her. And then then left her house and went to another girls' house and slept with her. And then left her house and went to another girl's house and slept with her and it was paparazzi'd. And both of those girls are like, it's a fuck dude.

And he's like, we were dating. It's pretty funny. And then he has to live with him. He cries in front of the camera a lot too. Guess the name of the host of Golden Bulls. Gavin. Just an English show, host to bite, English person. What's the name? Peter Hayes. No. Uh, just an English show, hoist about English person. What's that name?

Peter Hayes. No. Uh, Blimey. Blimey. That's what I was gonna say, Blimey buttocks. Jessica Carrot. Hahaha.

Jessica Carrot. Jessica Carrot. So I'm sorry, what about Cam? Oh, it's just like, it's just so insanely cringy to watch. There's this one girl in the show name, Kaylen, who was on a previous season of the bachelor that apparently he had had his eye on for a while and like he knew he was gonna be,

she was gonna be on the show. And somehow they ended up like talking and then kissing cause she was desperate to get a rose. Which girls is Kaylen? Kaylen, okay. She's like one of the, like, miss, I'll not miss Alabama, who's on handed bees season. She's like a very flat face. Okay. Anyways, but they ended up kissing. And then in his interviews, after the fact, he's

talking about like, yeah, you know, like it could be me and her at the end. I could be down on the proposing, you know, like this could be love and just essentially falling in love with her already. Yeah. And then like the next guy that comes in, she's like all over. Oh, yeah. And you just like, I need you to see. And that's the, that's where you would enjoy this part of the show. Cause then you get just a lot of shots of like six or seven people hanging out and the girl talking to the new guy and like has her arm run and whatever and then a dude in the

corner just like this. Yeah. Oh, why would I want to watch that? I'd lived that for fucking. I know. Cause when, yeah, you and the mom, because it's fun to watch I lived that for fucking I know I Used the money cuz it's fun to watch somebody else suffer Well, there's one shot of him after like these two people were making out

There's one shot of him walking alone on the beach at night and like walking into the water and this wave crashes up and hits him in the crotch And he tries to play it off because the cameras are on Just like shit like that all the time. I don't know why, I just love it. I eat it up. This episode of the RISC podcast is brought to you by meundies.

Yeah, with what's their face? Yeah, I was gonna start trying to watch that maybe, like tomorrow. Was like Ann Curry, maybe?

I don't remember. I've started watching, like tower stuff from airports, like the, Oh, like, there's traffic control? Yeah, traffic control. I can recommend some YouTube channels. I've just been bingeing one of them. The amount of times where

The tower was given instruction that's gonna kill a ton of people in the pilots like oh shit There was one where I think it was like Delta the cool sign was 3828 or something and the other one was 1328 and they both tries to take off into each other Mm-hmm and the towers like ah, but it's terrifying I guess the people on the plane never hear anything about it. No, you don't know. It makes you wonder like how many planes you've been on where you're about to die

and then someone noticed and then stopped it from happening. I subscribe. It's terrifying. What is on YouTube? I subscribe to Vassib, the A.S. A.S. A.S.

A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A.S. A. ago. It's tense. Sometimes it can be. Yeah, there was one a couple. Yeah, it's real. And there's tons of emergencies.

Like there's one girl who took off. She's a student. It was one of her first solo flights and the wheel fell off her plane. She took off. You know, there was one a couple weeks ago where I think it was a, I think it was an Eva air flight

that took off from LAX. And like they would like the person in the tower and then they just weren't coordinating each other correctly. And instead of like heading south, they ended up going north and was flying into the mountains and was about to hit the mountains, like just outside of LA. Oh, because you kept going north

and the woman was like, south, go south, south, south. You just thought that was the thing. She's like, she's like, having to move all the other planes in there. She's like, immediate climb, 7,000 feet, turn south. The best stuff is the towel getting pissed at pilots and pilots just getting pissed at each other as well. The cigarette was a people just being really snobby.

Here my fucking way, dude. Did you see that clip on social of a time lapse of all the planes over the San Diego airport? That was super cool. It was like over a 24 hour period or something. That was insane, because San Diego was not even a hub airport. Not really, no.

Correct. And so to see that many planes come in, it's just fucking... It was all like in, they should've all like in 30 seconds or something, right? Yeah. It was like a real quick thing and they just all landed. That was really neat.

Speaking of hub. I heard them when we were out there for Comic Con, because our hotel was right by the airport, and it was very apparent. If that time lapse was during Comic Con, that would make sense. We were at the same hotel, right? Yeah.

We're, did you hear that Delta might be getting a hub in Austin? Would you have many hubs? Yeah, they wanted to make Austin, like, I forget what they call it, like a focus city or something, where it's not an official full blown hub, but they were starting increasing operations. But there was a rumor the other day

that there's gonna be a lot more international non-stop flights out of Austin and that almost all of them will be probably serviced by Delta. I was say it was like Austin to Tokyo, Seoul, Amsterdam. It is Amsterdam and I just read the same list too. With Tokyo and Amsterdam are the big ones for me, but there was somewhere else really cool like Lisbon or like somewhere in Portugal or maybe Barcelona or somewhere as well. Because I was thinking the other,

when I saw that, dude, the only way to make me leave American would be to put a hub with any other airport. That's exactly how I thought it. Oh, you can do, okay, here it is, I found it. Amsterdam, Beijing, Dublin, Paris, Seoul, Shanghai, Tokyo. Okay, yeah. Yeah, I would consider leaving American

to switch to Delta or whoever, if I keep Beijing lights, wheeled like direct flights at Austin. How far is Beijing? Lights wheeled direct flights at Austin. How far is Beijing from Shanghai? Beijing to Shanghai flight time. We'll do it that way. It is a two hour, 15 minute flight. I feel like you don't need to direct flights from Austin to both

those places to Beijing to Beijing and Shanghai. Well, I think it's like a list like they might not all happen. Okay. But it's like the ones, like they might not all happen, but it's like the ones that they're working on. I always imagine when someone's responding to someone while typing that they're just like, like, yeah, and just like it's nothing present. Like that would be, could you imagine how awesome it would be

to be if Austin was like a Chicago or an LA or a New York style city. Tokyo, you can do anywhere in the world on one thing. I love that. Because I want to go back to Tokyo when Nintendo opens up that Super Nintendo world at Universal Studios and they said they're going to open it before the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. So it should be opening within the next year. So it's like, if there were a non-stop Austin and Tokyo flight, I would definitely do that.

I would take the non-stop Austin and Tokyo flight at least once a year, every year. I just have to admit that Japan. Take that environment. I would take the nonstop awesome to Tokyo flight at least once a year, every year. I've been in Japan. Take that environment. I was phenomenal. I mean, I've only been there. I only went there for two days. And I went there for a very short vacation, but it was probably the coolest place I've ever been on Earth.

I think I've talked about it extensively, but it is easily the coolest place I've ever been. I'm trying to reduce the carbon footprint of myself. Don't know why I phrased it like that. If I'd stop eating meat, how many flights is that? How many hamburgers make a flight? Making it an actual flight.

Because meat is awful, right? It's one of the biggest, it's the biggest, just eating steak. Hamburger. So I, while I looked this up, I- Didn't Burger King just come out with the impossible-

I ate the impossible Whopper yesterday. How was is it a burking? It tastes just like a Wopper. Really? Oh, sweet. Yeah. Like what's it made of? I don't know plant-based stuff. It was pretty good. It's the same. I eat the Beyond Meat stuff like I buy the Beyond Meat and I'll grill that at home and I think that's really good. They have that impossible meat at um uh free birds right? Do they? Yeah, I think so. I just realized that my- So what did you say, we just say Austin to Tokyo, or what do you have like a flight home to the Perkins?

No, I just don't want to fly as much. I don't want to- How about Austin to London? There you go, that's the fit. What's Austin to London? Carbon footprint. How many stakes is Austin to London? A quarter pound? Patty of beef

Is four pounds of greenhouse gas Right, okay, so Yeah, so I'm gonna look up so Austin to London's carbon footprint and then we can figure out The footprint of one passenger on yes, yeah, a ton of people know how do you What do let's stuff so do we do a return trip? Yeah, I want to come back. You want to come back? Austin, too. Heathrow?

Yeah, yes, please. Yeah, I'm a travel agent. Yeah, please. Yeah, fascinating. Okay, let's see. What total flight? Ooh, it's 1.36 tons. But one person?

No. I've heard the economy class direct. So that's like what? It turned flight. 2800 pounds or something? Let's see, that's what it gave me. That's what it gave me. Trips one.

Economy class, yeah. Why did it ask, yeah, that's what class you want. What does that matter? Well, because the business class seat takes up more space. So let's see, first, got damn it. Why does it clear, it cleared everything I put in? I'm sure. So the first class to see if it's any different. First class is 6.8 tons. Right because if the whole plane is economy. So let's say 1.36 times 2000 that's 2720 pounds 2720 divided by 4. That's 680 burgers to offset one round trip economy ticket.

I got flyers. I got three burgers a day. I know how to fly. Just stop eating hamburgers and you'll be fine. How the flights to take anyone want to be on the flight the flight anyway. Anyway, I canceled three flights in the last two weeks for like different for other reason for like reasons I couldn't go out of town. And it's like the best feeling in the world.

Oh, dude. It's so good. If a trip, if it, especially an international trip, if it falls through day off or the night before, I don't think I've ever been happier in my life. Yeah. And that feeling of just like, yes, no one sleeps on my bed.

This is the part where we get in trouble for talking about flying all the time, but no one that you don't have to get on that plane and go sleep in a hotel or whatever. Oh, and you get to sleep in your own bed. Yeah. Eat your own cereal. Eat your own impossible burger. Yeah, if you get sleeping, you're all bad. Yeah. Eat your own cereal. Eat your own a possible burger.

Yeah, it's like I eat cereal and keto. That's a new graphic. That wasn't really a story about any plane. We were holding off using it, but we've used it a couple of times and nobody's noticed. Oh, really? Another plane story graphic just flew across the screen. I never, I guess I don't really look at that screen very much. Didn't we used to have other confidence monitors there and there? Yeah, you guys were looking at yourselves too much.

So we decided to mix it up. Now, why is Eric get to make all the decisions? Gus, uh, he's, he's producer on the podcast. What does it, you got here 30 seconds before the show, then we had to go run to the bathroom. When could I run an idea by you? Is this really a strong soundboard? Uh, we have slack. Eric is like, uh, you have, that's true. You have answered me once. So I think that's what I was going to say. Is this real? We have slack Eric. It's like a,

That's true. You haven't answered me once. So I think I was gonna say that's the, That's the one that's, That's the one that's, That's the one that's, That's the one that's, That's the one that's,

That's the one that's, You confirmed, On the calendar for today's podcast. I did. That's why I didn't have to text you. You, I actually, I, I actually, I slept Eric when you confirmed it. I was like, Holy shit. Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin,

Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin,

Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin's gonna make you a calendar invite. Why do you- Why do you- Why did you- Yeah, why did you say yes to this one? I was in England, um, seeing my family, and I just didn't have anything to do.

So you usually have quite busy, and then a calendar invite is so far down my list. You can't hit accept. Yeah. Oh, thank you. Right. I have my notifications pop up on mine, so I just get like the thing on my screen.

It's like closer accept, accept accept, that way I don't have to go through. I just open my Google Calendar and I just look like what is still blank in terms of my response and just respond. You could do it that way. It takes like two seconds. I just have to say it a bit.

So you were talking about reality TV shows. Uh huh. And I've got one I want to talk about. Okay. Do any of you watch MasterChef? Absolutely. Okay, good. I have not watched the last, I fell off last season

and I haven't watched the season yet. I've watched every season of MasterChef. They're on season 10 right now. And I realized several weeks ago, maybe no, it was pretty close to the beginning of season 10 that I'm just hate watching MasterChef. Yeah, because it's a chef sucks. It sucks.

And it's like, I started really thinking about the show. And at, it's fundamental, the show makes absolutely no sense. It's like, the premise of the show is they want to find America's best home cook, right? So they have this whole thing that people come in, they're like, make us your best home cook dish. And they make it and it's like, oh, you're a great home cook. You're going to be on the show. Your self isn't, it technically always home like, oh, you're a great home cook. You're gonna be on the show. If you look at yourself, isn't it technically always home cooked?

I cook it at work. Did you? I don't know the answer to that. If you? Yes. Sorry. They're not planning on working in a restaurant. So then they start the show. They are. And every challenge is working a five star, and there's three Michelin star restaurant kitchen and make this insanely difficult dish. or it's like they'll have a challenge in the master chef kitchen. It's like make a souffle in 45 minutes. And it's like, this isn't home chef stuff. Right.

And it's like they all know how to do it. And it's also fucking self-important. They're like, this dish isn't worthy of season 10 of master chef. It's like, you fucking people. These people haven't been on the show for 10 seasons. This is the one season they're on. It's not like they've been practicing for 10 seasons.

There's like, there's any better or worse than the season five contestants. It doesn't make any fucking castles who picked them. And they're all like, the world famous, most famous kitchen in the world, the Master, no. So, no one gives a fuck about that stuff. Two things there, one, my problem with MasterChef's a little different.

But two, did you see the red at thread recently with the producer or one of the producers on MasterChef who answered a bunch of questions to like a little AMA about that show? No. I didn't read it but my girlfriend did, she was telling me about it. Some really fascinating stuff. Like when they're not on camera, they're sequestered in rooms with all the cookbooks in the world. And they can go through all the cookbooks, they can learn anything they want, they can do is, they're encouraged to study and read cookbooks and just like study, constantly. They're not allowed to write anything down,

they have to commit it all to memory, but they have like basically like, here's all the world's knowledge on food. But I feel like with cookie, you just memorize it. Put into practice. And then they do practice rounds before, they do televised rounds. And what I thought was interesting is the food that they taste like Joe and, or I, is just a little on it or he's back on it now.

Yeah, it's like Joe and our own and, and Gordon Ramsay. Christina's gone. Yeah, she's gone. She was only in for like three seasons. She was doing kids. She was doing kids. She came in to replace Graham Elliott when he left. Yeah. when she left, she replaced Joe and then Graham left the season because Graham did one season with her. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Anyway, I liked her.

Someone's laughing. This all very serious. And I liked Graham. But another thing that I think is really fascinating. I got undercooked chicken when I ate at Gram Elliott's restaurant. Did you really? Do you want in Chicago? Yeah.

Ugh, it's the worst. That can make you sick. Yeah. That's a no-go on MasterChef. Uh, so, the thing that I thought was most interesting is they prepare the food, right? And then it goes in for beauty shots. And then it takes about an hour to an hour and a half to do all the beauty shots of all the food. Mm-hmm.

And then the, uh, judges eat the food. I always wondered about that food. Yeah, it always seemed like, I always wonder for a production standpoint, how the time all of that. They have to eat, they say that the crew and everybody goes to lunch during the beauty shots, except for the people that do the beauty shots.

So they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go,

they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, they go, professional enough that they know what it should taste like and what it tastes down cooled down. And they can extrapolate what it would have tasted like fresh. And they say it sucks, but as long as they figure,

as long as everybody's food is just as cold as everybody else's, it's fair. And that's the system they use. What if you make like, I know you won't, but stuff with like eggs. Yeah. Cause like cold eggs just taste fucking bad. What if they microwave it? I don't think they do I think

I think that's why you see him spit some stuff out when it's under cooked and stuff It's like not only is this raw but it's gonna be a raw cold two hours. Does anything go bad after the hour and a half? I would assume well, I don't know because that wouldn't That I just can't eat lamp over it. What if you have like great ice cream? I don't remember. They, maybe there are special circumstances for the dessert episodes. I don't know, maybe they get thrown into a freezer or whatever.

But the problem I have in MasterChef is that it's followed the like hell's kitchen, kitchen nightmares, MasterChef have followed the same path. 24 hours to hell and back. 24, I never, I've watched two episodes of that and we'll never watch it again. They watched all of them, they were terrible. They were all so bad.

But that's like, that's even lower down. Like they started, Kitchen Nightmar started as a show about fixing fucked up kitchens. Especially the UK version. The UK version is completely different. The American version was never as good as the UK version, but it was closer at the beginning of the show than what then was by the end.

What is it now then? What was at the end? It very quickly, by about two or three seasons in, Hell's Kitchen's the worst. It devolves into just reality TV and just drama and fighting. It's just about the interplay between the contestants fighting and Hell's Kitchen. It's just about them getting in trouble and then going back upstairs and then yelling at each other and catching that on film has nothing to do with the food. MasterChef was the break from that. It was like the respite from that, which is what I loved about MasterChef, but by about season five, it started to go that route,

and now I can't get through a season of MasterChef either, because it's the same thing. It's just dumb drama and people hating and fighting each other. I feel like that's on MasterChef, but it's still there. They don't have as much of that. I'm a top chef, man, because they just fucking Tom and Padma are boring and they just make people cook.

I've never watched Top Chef. Yeah, I like Iron Chef. Iron Chef's great. I watch Iron Chef a long time ago. I don't know, do they still make new episodes? I don't know. I think Alton Brown does it now, right? Probably, yeah.

Iron Chef of America. Anyone watch Chopped? With Tom from Query. I like Chopped because it's quick, it's like 30 chopped With Tom yeah, I'm queer. I Like chop because it's quick. It's like 30 minutes. I've seen yeah, I've seen a thousand episodes I've never like watched a season in a row. Yeah, same here. It's like if it's on me like oh, yeah I watch that for a bit. It's a good you it's not the same It's like three people 30 minutes you're done It's like you're not like I didn't watch before I don't have to worry about what's watching what's next

Yeah, I think the little pyramid conceda that show is great where you like start with four and then you will have three and then two and yeah, that's that's pretty awesome. Yeah. That's a cool way to do it. It's a good show. I became obsessed with like house shows, like house hunters and homey cover shows, flipper flops, like all this stuff. Go ahead. But no, I mean, there wasn't much to the story of just like, there was a time period where

I was obsessed with watching those. So I was curious. The other day, I was House Hunters, right? Yeah. And it was an episode in Austin. And I was like, oh, that's weird. I've never seen an episode of House Hunters set in Austin. So then I started thinking I was like,

have I, in all the years I've watched House Hunters, have I ever seen the same episode twice? Because I don't think I ever have. So then I decided to look it up. House Hunters has 2,131 episodes. Yeah. Which was the over 2,000 episodes. I don't know what season they're on now.

Most recent episode, according to IMDB, is season 182 episode 12. There? So I think it's the same show. Do you watch that on Netflix? I watch that on my old man cable. I watch it on HGTV. But I watch it on the same show. Do you watch that on Netflix? I watch that on my old man keyboards, put it on each TV. But I watch it on Hoons and Co.

I think my mom was watching that. And there are seasons where, like, whole, I don't know, what are listed as categorized as seasons, they'll only be like three cities. They'll be like four Austin episodes, like 10 California episodes, and like two Oklahoma episodes.

Yeah. But I've watched, I went through this summer and watched every Austin home show I could when I was trying to buy a house and just in my head. I may have seen that episode you're talking about. So they still make stories, was? I think so. I don't know, dude.

That was a long time ago, we used to watch that. I think they do. Might be the last reality show I ever watched. I think they make like a bunch of different ones now. I used to watch like the first season or two. Yeah. I do love with house owners though, how it's like, oh, this isn't me and my husband are looking for a house.

He's unemployed and I sell jewelry at the farmers market on Sundays. Our budget is $800,000. It's like a recocking couple. I feel like it's an, I feel like an Austin in the shows. It's like, I'm a electrical engineer and my wife is a professor and our budget is $250,000

when we want to live downtown Austin. You're doing. It's never been there. We found this house in Leander. It's close. There's this million dollar condo downtown that you could. If you're lucky, Jesus.

It's budget a little bit. Fucking, uh, Millie and my mom this summer watched. Have you guys ever watched Love It Or List It? Yes. That was on 24 hours a day in my house. Was that the show? Love It Or List It? Yeah. That's where you like they can either accept the renovation or go by the new house. Uh huh. Yeah. So there's a real tour that shows them around to a new place. It's a real house. It's renovating. Of TV. Do you guys watch every day?

Every day? On average. On average, I would say two Two two hours. I go with that probably around there. Well just I or I'll if you can't like having it on That'll happen sometimes to yeah I like actively watching on average too. I would say probably more for me But I view it as work like research for because we talk so much and they feel like it's good to be Well-versed in pop culture. I watch a lot of things like for that work. You watch stuff for work. Yeah. I'll also preface the buy. I also, because I don't want to be a lazy, gross dude,

I also write a bike 20 miles a day every day, minimum. I still don't know how, and when you do that. After work? Million I rode 15 miles today. It's too hot though. Ready? This morning, it wasn't, not at 9 a.m. Damn.

If you start at like 7 a.m. on a Saturday, you can be done by 10. You still have a whole day ahead of you. You haven't gotten overheated and you, it's like, and I'm never gonna go to a gym or workout. So I've started doing a thing now where, because I used to try and sleep in as long as possible at the weekend, because it's like the one day

you can do that. How long could you? I don't just ever sleep in really long, maybe like 10 or be the least. I can sleep in now. I've decided I'm gonna wake up at like six or five every Saturday and Sunday, and just have a really long weekend. It's great.

It's true. You get so much done. Yeah, but one time you go to bed, because you get tired a little earlier. Yeah, I start waning, but it's fine. You still do stuff. You go 11, right? Yeah, midnight, probably.

That's 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. time that you would have been asleep is more useful than the 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. time that you would have been away. Yeah, midnight. Probably. That's 7am to 10am time that you would have been asleep is more useful than the 11pm to 1am time that you would have been awake. Yeah, I'm glad. I also, it's also extra great this time of year because when you're up that early, it hasn't really gotten that hot yet. Like if you wait to do stuff at night, it's still hot from the day, but if you're coming off like the end of the night, the beginning of the day, it's still cool.

Oh, not cool. It's as cool as it's gonna get, and you can get stuff done. I need to replace an outlet in my garage, and it's just too fucking hard to do it. It's like, I need to wake up one week into like 5 a.m. and go do that, because otherwise, it's just too hard to go out and do that. Yeah, I love our bike ride the other day on Thursday.

It was like 114 degrees. It's like, it's crazy. Mm-hmm. But it's also been a very mild summer. I can't complain. I guess that I just recently gotten bad. I went down to Houston over the weekend and I was shocked at how less hot it is there. Did you do that halo outpost event? How was it? It was fun. It was good. We out would you see Megan Castro there? Yeah, her end of the Megan Castro. She's the most chief. They actually had, I didn't get to meet, I got to, I saw Steve Downs, but I didn't really get to talk to him.

But they had an interesting exhibit where they showed the height of all the different covenant, like a scale outline of how a covenant is. Oh yeah, the current is like, as tall as a human. Right. And a jackal is bigger than a human. It's like, oh, well, I guess you play as Master Chief and you're so much bigger that they look small. Yeah.

That's what I really liked about ODST is that they kind of, they make everything study tour. Right. It was, it was, we see it in person, be like, oh, so they're cute. So it's the tallest, like a brute. Hunter, a hunter? Oh, yeah, hunter, yeah. Yeah, it's a 12 feet tour.

12 feet tall, really. And they're all hunched over to. Yeah, and because master chief's like seven feet tall, so then it's like everything is scaled to that cooler in Houston. Yeah, it was like 10 degrees cooler in Houston. Because I always thought Houston was known for being very humid. It was a little more humid, but I thought it was more comfortable there than it was here. Like I sat outside for a little while there.

It's like I would never sit outside like this in Austin in the middle of the day. It was. It was we had that vicious circle, vicious summer stream on Friday. And it was fun. And sitting, the first thing we did, we played the game first and then the first activity was outside. And I think it like wiped everyone out. Yeah, they, they navigated away from outside really quickly. Jack was like, I can't go back out there. I can't do that. I don't blame you, buddy. You're not meant to be outside in general

with your skin. But did you? Yeah, Portshad. He's like, I didn't know it. I don't blame you, buddy. You're not meant to be outside in general, with your skin, but. Did you see? Yeah, a portshad, he's like, I didn't know it'd be outside, didn't wear sunscreen today. Steven Joe absolutely nailed those nougatosses. That was just unbelievable. I thought, I feel like, Dave,

surely they must be practicing. They, I feel like those guys have like weird human skills. Yeah. Like there's some people kind of like Jack, how it's like non-etheletic abilities, but just like these skills, like he's like fucking good at most like game, air hockey. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And shit like that and poker. That was, that was poker's not really. You're good at useless stuff. That was really cool on a personal level to see Joe here because Beratzen Beretta was like hugely influential to Richard. Like, he was, Lindsay was asking me. She was like, well, which one, Steve and which one's Joe?

And I was like, that one, Steve, that one's Joe. You never see Beretta's a brat? She's like, I love Beretta's a brat. I was like, that's Joe Beretta. She was like, I know. It was so crazy because like, I was even telling Gavin, one of the, I don't think he was there, but one of the early big fights we had, it wasn't a huge fight, but me, Matt and Bernie

got into a fight because Bernie left for a little while. This was downtown Buda, and Matt and I were making an episode and we were way behind, and we took a break to watch an episode of Brass and Bretta, and Bernie came in and arrived while we were watching it, and he was really mad. We all got in the big yelling match between the three of us about whether we were being lazy

or not. Did he, how was I not there? Uh, because we were working. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know why you weren't there. If Matt was there, I should definitely would have been. No, I know.

It was like, it was like around season four of Army B. Maybe you were out of town. I might have been out of town. I remember being like a fri- like laid on a Friday night. Season four, maybe I was with Jason like at a convention. You might have been, you might have been like, because it would have been probably 10 PM on a Friday night, so you might have been, you might have been like, because it would have been probably 10 PM on a Friday night. So you might have been, yeah. How do you ask you to do something?

I don't remember the specifics of it. It's part of why I didn't want to tell Joe. I kind of, I want to run down Burnier Matt and see if they remember. I just remember it being a really funny moment. And it was just really cool and gratifying one of the things where it's like something that you were a fan of in early days that now suddenly your paths cross as peers almost. And they was so immensely successful

right at the beginning of YouTube. Too soon. Yes. We talked about this. Yeah. We talked about this with Bernie last week at the week before. How are they?

I think it was on game time. About people who were big right before, right as YouTube started and then didn't get caught up in that wave of YouTube. People who were really big before YouTube was acquired by Google and then just kind of... But a lot of them did really well... Behind the scenes on their own, like,

you were Fred Figglesworth? He actually had quite a career off of YouTube. Oh Fred, he had a bunch of those TV shows on Nickelodeon. I think he made, I read about them a while back. He made a boatload of money and did really well post YouTube. Wasn't Phil DeFranco one of the first YouTubers too? I guess first big successful YouTubers because he's still going real well.

When I think of like early ones, I think of like justine. I think justine. I think of shatards. I think of like. What about Jenna Marbles? Yeah. She was pretty early on.

She still has one of the most popular channels today. Grace was very early. Harley, like Epic Milltime member being one of the first of that big model. They weren't in media, like they weren't just really. It wasn't a media, Harley, like, Epic Mill Time member being one of the first of that. They weren't in media, like they weren't super- It wasn't a media, but it was like, it was pretty early on. Well, I think like when we went to that YouTube meetup, at San Diego Comic Con, remember all those years ago? Oh, hot for words.

Hot for words and like, uh, who was it? Like, who else was there? Like all those people that were there, like that. Mr. Riggatar man and like those guys, right? Mr. Riggatar man is directing movies now. Yeah, with like real people and that's crazy I don't want to call this person out, but during I won't call them out, but during the live stream Troy Baker was here Uh-huh and I still never met him

I don't think so. I would have introduced you. I mean I'd like I would love to meet him He seems like a lovely dude. He's not I'm not I'm not good at introducing myself to be terrible at it. Or putting myself in a position where I can be introduced. I just run the other way. I'm guessing our shy. We don't. We don't want to impose on anybody.

And yeah. But he was here for the live stream, but he had to leave early to catch a flight. And there was a girl I was talking to. And this is a very sweet, kind girl. And he left. And she's like, what was his name again? And I was like, Troy, she goes, Troy, and I was like, yeah, Troy Baker. And she went,

are you fucking kidding me? Because he was wearing a retro replay shirt. Yeah. And apparently she had asked her, she's like, so what's your involvement in all this? And he went, oh, I make this show. And she's like, oh, cool. Nice. Not familiar. But that's awesome. That was nice him to say that, though. Yeah. Yeah, I go. Rectoreplay. Yeah. Reppin' his thing. And she just felt so bad after it.

And I was like, I'm sure it's okay. That's really good. He's not the kind of guy to be like, she knew who I was. That's funny, dude. I thought that event went really well and everybody seemed to have a genuinely good time and there was no, it was like, I hesitate to put it in the same category as the spring break and the family reunion because it was kind of a different gig, but it felt different.

It felt different, but it was more similar to the Let's Play party we had in England last year. Didn't you didn't do that one? It was good, it was a lot of fun. Yeah, I had a really good time off camera as well. Like just chatting to everyone and finished it. Yeah, I had a really fun time watching for as well. Like just chatting to everyone and I had a really fun time watching for whatever reason James and Adam

were just being so fucking funny throughout the day and the night and I just watched them from those like putting their hiding in the first and stuff for a long time. Michael decided to put blue all around his mouth and my favorite thing was just watching Fion and trying to keep keep a strip like every time Fiona glances Michael she would just start tearing up. I know there was one

part she was looking at him and laughing. I was like what's going on and she just pointed at Michael and Michael was just like he did that thing where his chin gets sunken into his neck and it was just my girlfriend actually made a made a little gift I'll show you later on image it was have you seen that shitters full meme with a little girl with a, she really made it with Michael. It looks fucking gross. I'm fucking gross.

You guys trying to get in the balloons was like my favorite part of the entire stream. Yeah, I don't know why they cut all the necks off him. Yeah. I mean, I don't know if that would have helped you guys. I feel like I've shoved down into like 50 balloons. We never cut the necks off. Yeah.

Because they kept just gonna deflate it immediately. I don't know if you caught any of the shrieks. I was driving. But they did it extra life when they got in these giant balloons and like did a race where they hopped across the place to do something. They couldn't get a single person in. It went very wrong.

We probably 40 minutes of trying, and we got Christina in. I saw Christina get in, then it burst and start choking her. I was legitimately terrified for her. That's why you got the next one. We did have the medic here, though. Yeah, I saw that part as one of the highlights.

I didn't have any chance to play, it was out of town over the weekends, but I haven't hopped on a vicious circle, maybe I'll play that a bit tonight too.

You guys won a whole thing, right? It blew team. Yeah, because obviously, because of Stephen Joe's And now you said that final round. Who was it that had that crazy final round? Oh, that was a Someone on the red team. Yeah forget his name. I don't remember who it was. Oh, go. Oh, it was gone. Yeah, all right He won five in a row. He won around. Yeah, he's really good at video games. Yeah, he is Ryan thought of a good game. I thought we were gonna take it because Ryan and then he got his ass kicked by Alfredo. Yeah, I was I thought I was really good at that game until we released it Started playing on steam with other people like oh no, I'm actually garbage at the scale. I got over again

I got really excited because I won my first round in vicious circles still to the state the only one I've ever won And it just I died instantly and then became a little dipper, which is the most fun thing to play as in my opinion in the game. I just love how fast it moves. But I got someone invaded their body and then they were right by the evac zone and they had 75 nuggets. And I was just like in it like doing this thing. I'm like, I'm gonna do it. Put the fuck. It kind of reminds me of that halo reach game type or three with the skulls. We had to get the 10 skulls headhunter. Do it, put the fuck. It kinda reminds me of that Halo Reach Game type or three with the skulls. We had to get the 10 skulls.

Head hunter? Head hunter, yeah. So it was cool. I think I was called. I think I was called, yeah. I played a, I played Gryffball with that Halo event for the first time in a few years. It had been a while since I played.

I got fucking destroyed by Jack. Dude, the people that play Gryffball, they ruined it for me. They were really good. I know, they got so much, like, it's like, but we made this and like two days later, people were like, no, youall, they ruined it for me. They were really good. I know, they got so much, like, but we made this, and like two days later, people were like, no, you suck, get out of the way.

Yeah, it's hard to play with people who are the best in the world, and then people like Andrew Patton shut up, and flowers, and it was just like, I'm not playing this again. So flowers. We have a lot of flowers. Yeah.

Good Lord. He had a move, though, and he would like, how much jump back was in fly through the air, we just caught it, flowers in, because he was the one who started doing it. Yeah, you there were people that just like fly. Yeah, never touched the ground. Yep, it's pretty insane.

Yeah, so you spend all that time working on something and then you just suck at it. Yeah, and then you release it to the general populist and you realize that you are mediocre at best at everything you do. How do you think August went? I thought it went good. That's awesome. It's awesome. No, it's a... How do you think August, August went Gus? I thought it went good. That's awesome. No, it's a... Did you guys get to see it?

I said the word between it's been several years since it came out. I mean, when the last of us two comes out, eventually, we can play it again. I'm so sad you didn't do July. We could do it. We could do it. We could do it. We could do it. We could do it.

We could do it. We could do it. We could do it. It was really fun to play with you guys. Except the first one that we taped was that Trouble in Terrorist Town. I was just, it's very confusing. So overwhelmed and confused that entire game. I was like, I don't know what's happening. You should join us again for another one.

Is there anyone as widely loved in the Chima Hunter audience outside of Chima Hunter other than Gus? I will say I saw a couple of comments that I'm just repeating what I saw. It said, the Gus month was way better than Bernie month. I did see that too. I wasn't gonna bring it up, but I'm glad you did. Just I read every comment.

I saw those too. Also, I read a really bizarre comment on this. It's a couple of the day where somebody complain was that the little dimper moves too slow, and it's too hard to get around the map. Oh, no, the little dimper so fast. I feel like they expanded the rich on this thing. You can really fly with that thing.

It's really fun. Dude, I hope you know, you have an open invitation to come in and film with Achievement Hunter whenever you want to work. Thank you. Oh, good. So, those last of us to have a release date yet. I don't know. The fucking gamescom stuff's going on right now.

I wonder if they released it last of us to. We are so good at losses. What? Did this just get announced today? Seven days. Bum bum bum. No, no, no, that's that's death-strending. What the fuck, they can't do that. What's the...

I think they made it seem like it was the last of us two release date, but it was a death-strending release date. What is the game about? I don't know, but they announced today that you can pee in that game. Cool. Like, do you have to pee or like you can? I don't know, and if enough people pee in the same place,

it makes mushrooms grow. Like, is it you can't? I don't know. And if enough people pee in the same place that makes mushrooms grow. Like is it like the Sims? I don't know. Of course the last game. There was a woman breastfeeding a ghost baby. Was she peeing there? Is it gonna multiplayer? I think it's like a weird multiplayer

where you don't interact with everyone directly, but it's kind of like a shared space kind of thing. Is your horse kids dumped in Melgar 5, right? Yes, and you could weaponize it. Yeah Have we done a top 10 games you can piss in before uh-uh We've done hostile grossest toilets postal to we should definitely do a video where it's if we can Where it's just us standing in a circle pissing on something? Yeah, maybe master Like a between the game. We can go mushroom on somebody So the rumor is last of us to is May 2020, but master's or like a between the game. You can go mushroom on somebody.

So the rumor is last of us two is May 2020, but that's just rumor. So we can we can spend a few months getting good and then do another August. Oh, it's between May and August will be training. Yeah, we'll be in training. Barbara, if you wanted to come do a month of achievement 100, what games would you want it? What four or five games would you want to do?

Oh, man, I don't know. The Sims. Hey, yes. I don't know. I have to think about that. Think about it. Yeah. I'm sure we could figure it out. We played Hoist once. We did. That was actually, I think, one of the first achievement hundred videos I ever did. Maybe the first was a horse with you. You're horseing around? I've done at least two or three horse appearances back when we did horse. I feel like I might have done one or two other ones. We did that pretty sweet heist collab the other day.

Yeah. See, that was a test so well. That's like one of my favorite things we've done in recent years. I actually had Millie watch it. One of the rare moments when I'm like, you should watch a Rooster video. Yeah. It's a journey when you should watch a Rooster video. Yeah. It's a journey when you watch the three back to back. Yeah.

Fuck it, Chad's just getting in and dated with people being like, we should take in the taco man. And he's like, I know. Yeah. But Chad is for the least deserving of that happen. I mean, we all knew it was gonna happen. We all knew that there was gonna be a double cross.

I don't know why it came as a surprise. There was something that we didn't put in the video because it wasn't needed, but we locked Sam in that cage and we came back and he wasn't there. That was in the video. But as a follow-up, we couldn't find Sam the rest of the day and then I get a slack from Sam that just says, hello, Barb. And then the next slack said, I want to play a game.

And I haven't heard from him since. So I don't know what. I haven't seen him. Has anyone seen Sam? If there's a corpse in that cage somewhere. Did he meld into the building? Is like his spirit is here? Let me see what else he said.

It was fucking creepy as shit. Did you sent a screenshot of that? Yeah, he said, hello, Barb, I want to play a game. And I said, I hate this. And then he just said, LOL. And I said, it was Chad's idea.

And he said, oh, I believe you, I do really. And then I just didn't hear from him again after that. How about this? I identify a bunch of really stressful co-op games, two person co-op games. And then I started a new series where you and Trevor have to play together and it's called Couples Therapy. Didn't you already do something like that?

Did I? I did a show called Relation of Goals on the X-Wife, but obviously my, I fucked that up because we got the worst. I think we do pretty well now. But this is your relationship I'm screwing with now. Yeah, bring it worst. I think we do pretty well. But this is your relationship I'm screwing with now. Yeah, bring it on. I think we can stand it. I think we can stand it.

You should find all the games where you have to share the controller, like cookies and cream or overcooked, or it's like two people playing on one controller. Yeah, cookies and cream would be perfect for that. Yeah. Or like keep talking, nobody explodes. But if the bomb blows up, both of you have like a prize possession,

that gets blown up. The problem is I'm so shit at video games. I cannot stress that enough. Well, keep talking to nobody explodes and it'd be perfect for that. Yeah, because it's just about communication. Oh, we're pretty good at that. Yeah, and then I put like your laptop

and Trevor's favorite pair of shoes or something in like a can, we'll just douse it with lighter fluid and then we'll set it on fire if you guys fail. Sounds good. My laptops are usually laptops. So I'm down for that. Okay. We'll we'll we'll we'll figure that out. We should find a way to make it automatic. Yeah. Like like so no one has to do it. But it's like as soon as the game reaches a fail state like it sends a signal. And it yeah, absolutely. The thing is why that no one do it. What? It reaches a fail state like it sends a signal and it yeah Absolutely.

Whatever the thing is. Why that no one do it? What? You said we have to make it automatic. Why would like no one want to do it? No, that way it's like there's no way to stop it or no one No one feels guilty about it. Yeah.

About like, oh I have to destroy your things like no, it's like if you fail Then automatically it was your failure that causes it to be destroyed. Guilty. Yeah. I love it. Who is this? A hobnoblin in chat says maybe co-opls therapy? Oh, that's pretty funny. Couple of services fine.

Co-op. Co-opls. Not everything has to be clever. Co-opls. Everything has to be upon Simon Valtz. That's not true. So what I'm looking at here. One of my favorite parts of that heist was when we had to go pro in Chad's office and Blaine says, this means war. It's like a funny reaction. But the little comments Chad's office and Blaine says this means war It's like a funny reaction, but the little comments like oh Blaine don't don't do it Don't stop you so many wrote a fucking novel about what our response would be have you read that? No, should we do it? Can I read? Our response let me let me you guys continue a conversation a conversation. I'll find I think it wasn't really cool in that

Did you see the videos? Yeah, of course. It would, how cool would it have been if we just had a drone above the car park? And you could see all these little groups of people running in different directions. It would have been so funny. Speaking of drone, have you guys seen Good Bullys yet?

No. No. I watched it yesterday. It's good fucking funny. Yeah. The whole movie's about a drone, that's why I asked. Oh, interesting. Yeah. We need to have drones flying all the time.

That way it's never suspicious. Well, we had that thing where we were. It's the constant. We were doing that let's play announcement with all the different let's play families and a drone just came down in the middle of the shoot and Then it took off and no one knew who's trying to How cool we got drone shots and blame who's directing I was like, mm-hmm Did you see and it just left I was like it was like flying around us. We were just like oh Weird did you see that clip of and it just left, I was like, it was like flying around us. We were just like, oh, sweet. That's the trick. It was weird. Did you see that clip of some guy's drone dying over a lake?

Yeah. And he runs into the lake and starts swimming and like perfectly catches it just in time. It's really cool. That's dedication to save a few hundred dollars. Yeah. Oh, speaking of, oh, you find it? Now you go, you go right.

Speaking of which, the other day, I got a piece of a piece of mail and it looked like junk mail You know is very in white envelope had no real discerning information on it It's basically rip it up right away. I normally do but I started to open it and it was a check from a class action lawsuit settlement For $408. Whoa I was like like 16 Yeah, normally it's like a tiny little amount. I was like, 16 cents a shirt. Yeah, and normally it's like a tiny little amount. I was like, holy shit, I didn't even know that.

I was part of this thing. I guess like some store that I bought two shirts from years ago, there weren't even expensive shirts. I had like a class section lawsuit against them and I was part of it automatically. That's a lot of money. I got four, right. I was like, holy shit.

Did everyone who shop there during that time period get that? I don't know. It's like, I don't know anything about it. Other than I got a check in a white envelope for $488. I was just blown away. Was it real? Yeah. You put it in, it went through.

I deposited. It's fine. It's been like a week. It's so cool. It's not like one of those check, we talked about it on the pockets the other week. Big checks. Like a check that you once you deposit it, you know, oh, this company, it's like a, it starts a loan in your name. How's not like one of those check we talked about some pockets the other way like check that you once you deposit it You know, oh this company. It's like a starts alone in your name. How's that what?

Then you have to like sign something to style it. I don't I don't know how it works But if they're buying people get scammed out of shit all the time. This was an actual thing. So if you ever are Invited to join in the class section lawsuit. I guess join it every now and then you might get a check for For a new video game console or a new graphics card. Dude, that's awesome. I feel like I would try and spend that money. I'd be like, oh, this is my head. I'm just like, you know how I gotta find something. Yeah, don't just put it in the pool.

Right, so you gotta find some of this $400,000. Yeah, something that you wouldn't have bought. Right, that's it. That is because of the stupid lawsuit. Because I bought two shirts five years ago or something. You should just buy 50 shirts with it. The same store. We're so weird.

How much do you weigh? Like 10, 11 stone. Like 145 pounds or something. Okay. Why? I want to deadlift you. Oh, I thought- Not right now. I don't have 165. 165 is now my- I want to deadlift you. Oh, I saw it.

Not right now. You did one. I don't have 65. 165 is now my counter. I don't have handles though. I was trying to think about this, how to do it. And we could find maybe like a bar or something that you could like wrap yourself around. I'm not snake.

What do you mean? Like we could hold onto a bar. And I could hold onto a bar. So I'm not lifting, like I'm lifting you plus the bar. But I would just be on the floor if I was holding on to the bar. So I'm not lifting, like, I'm lifting you plus the bar. But I would just be on the floor if I was holding a bar. Exactly. Well, then I would lift you, but you'd be hanging on to the bar. Well, how, I mean, how high are you?

You're like, on a roof, was I mean? No, it's just like, wait, lifting, dude. What the fuck are you imagining? Why would you be on the roof? If I'm hanging on a bar. You're not hanging this way, you're like... You're laying down with a bar. Well, not to your legs and arms. Like, you're at one of those, like, if I'm on a bar. You're not hanging this way, you're like- You're laying down with a bar. We're not doing your legs and arms.

Like you're one of those, like if I'm cooking a pig. Spiros. Yeah. So you're gonna shove up a pole at my ass and lift me up. She wants to do that. I know what that is. Then what do you think that's on the roof? I know what I'm talking about.

I'm showing you a picture of someone dead lifting. It is the honor roof. He's on the room. I'm not gonna, you're not what I'm talking about. I'm showing you a picture of someone dead lifting. It's the honor roof. He's on the fucking ground. How did you get on the roof from this? Yeah, I caught a hang on a bar sideways. What you want? I'm just like, I'm just like, I'm just like,

I'm just like, you're gonna hold on like this and deckle under it? So I'm just like. Like your legs? Like this. Yeah. Like your legs. You cross your arms. There you go. I don't think it would be, I think it would be top heavy on this set Yeah. Like your arms. There you go.

I don't think it would be, I think it would be top heavy on this set. You wouldn't be able to do it. One arm would have it. Yeah, you'd have to like find a way to evenly distribute Gavin's weight. Yeah. The dark crystal age of resistance returns to the world of Thraw with an all-new adventure. When three gulflings discover the horrifying secret behind the skexies power, they set out on an epic journey to ignite the fires of rebellion and save their world.

From Jim Hansen Studios, this series is an epic prequel series to the beloved 1982 Hansen film, The Dark Crystal, with characters voiced by a star-study cast, including Terran Egerton, Andy Samberg, Kate McKinnon, Helena Bottom Carter, Eddie Isard, and more. I'm sure you know Lindsay and Barbara went to San Diego Comic Con in July for an adventure filled with their own Dark Crystal transformations and a visit to the Netflix booth. Yo estoy seguro de que Linslie and Barra fue a San Diego Comic Con en July por el evento que fue con su propio gran transformación de la Netflix. En la descripción, puedes verlo en la descripción en august24th.com y en august25 en la YouTube Channel

y verlo en la descripción de la Netflix. ¡Es muy bien! Oye, este fin de boya al pueblo. Y guilleme a preguntar dos y venías. ¿Te apuntas? ¿Qué dices? Pero este pueblo es de legísimos. Nada. Mira que fácil. Primero siete paradas de metro hasta tochad. Y ahí te anabas a la Jodlógon. No te lee es. Este verano viaja de puerta, puerta y sin complicaciones con Bláblacá.

Siempre encontrarás uno cerca, incluso a última hora. De la serva a tu próximo viaje, yo. Bláblacá, bláblacá. ¡I figured it out! ¡I figured it out! I don't know if the... You guys are dead left and now. I don't know if you guys want to talk about it back around.

Yeah, I would just talk about it. This is what somebody's response, this is whispering oracle two days ago on Reddit's response to Blaine's going to get revenge on us and the efficacy of whether Blaine would be able to enact revenge on us. And his response is, it's, it's almost like a college thesis. The problem is, achievement or sort of falls into the usual, me against my brother and my brother and I against our cousin, the three of us against a stranger mentality, or the old trope about never breaking up a fight between two brothers. They're more than

likely to turn on each other until the outside to out exists, then they'll immediately ally and be loyal to each other to take out the interloper. Age would be more than willing to prank Matt or Jeremy or Gavin if it was their own idea, but the moment that suggestion comes from outside, they'd be far more likely to side with their own against that person, whether it would be just a, well, you can never trust Blaine.

This is a setup situation or you're just not allowed to prank Matt, only we can prank Matt situation, that's correct. It would very likely be difficult for anyone, any outside force to split them up via mind games because we're not smart enough for mind games. In your example, Blaine, we try, it's dumb, exactly, you don't need that.

The other problem going after it is Achievement Hunters, they have so many more members than most of the other groups in Richcheeeth. Don't forget, strengthen numbers. Most of whom are kind of insane. Achievement Hunter is always going to have the advantage of numbers, in most cases, combined with the fact that they have very long memories and will never forgive or forget Even if you do somehow manage to prank them all you've done is guarantee that you'll spend the next few months or years living in fear of Whatever terrible retribution that will eventually be cooked up to punish you. He's not wrong. That is really wonderful. I just responded accurate

Very well thought out I hope you I hope you got a good accurate. Yeah. Very well thought out. Replying. That was great. I hope you had a good grade. Yeah, it's true. We always, like, each other's throw. It's like, big grin in that. As soon as something threatened the department, I feel like we'd all be like,

no, absolutely. That's, I mean, it's the same with any of us, I guess. Any groups of friends or siblings, where, yeah, what that guy said. And even in, like, concentric circles within inside the group, like, I would fuck with Gus to defend you, but if anybody from outside

to try to fuck with Gus, I'd kill them, you know? Yeah. Actually, I might pick. I might pick Gus over either of you. I don't know. I guess my loyalty's light with you. That's fair. But let's find out right now.

That's fair. All right. Use this little thing, the shark guy. Oh God. I saw Eric play with it before we started. He lost again. I think it looked like his most painful loss. Did it hurt?

Yeah. Apparently there's a whole, uh, I was just, I was reading somebody's, uh, there was a thread on right at the was discussing whether you could or would get revenge on us and the wisdom of that. I was just reading somebody's like, triates about it.

You got plans for it. And it's very accurate. I mean, you, you saw my fall up to Chris' Star Wars prank where I took him to a, like a Scarface mansion and had him swatted. Yeah. So we saw that Blaine doesn't mess around Mike drop no drop the mind

You didn't lose that game All right This is a soundboard right that no that was him who can tell That was a soundboard, right? No, that was him. Who can tell? That was a soundboard. That was a soundboard. I hate it so much. I love it. I hated it first and I love it. So, have you seen that really weird story last week about this person who's been caught

like on surveillance camera? I think it's in Virginia. It's in Virginia. Yeah. Who wears an old tube TV on his head and at night he goes around and leaves TVs on people's porches. And like, ways that the camera, two TVs are flashing in. Two TVs, okay.

Nobody knows. Nobody knows. And apparently, the footnote in the story is it also happened last year. Like at the same time, like the second or third week of August, it just shows up. It starts to be key. Okay. So is his head?

I thought he had it on top of his head. No, his head is a TV. So this guy is just like a performance artist. That's brilliant. Unless he's are there bombs in the TV's or anything? No, they're just TV. Like I work. I don't know.

I think so. How many has that many is he done? Oh, let's see. It's like that was like a third member of Doth punk. We got kicked out of that And now he just says that I don't know it seems like it's just in a neighborhood So not like a ton, but Did it? We're found it more than 50 homes. Oh my god, and they don't know who it is No, and apparently like I said

He did it last year and he did it again this year What if he's just some dude? He's got a big-ass garage to clean out He doesn't know what to do at all Bring him to Goodwill and then he just picks him back up from good Everybody's gonna throw these fucking TVs away and then they're gonna find out was Banksy and each TV's worth $10 billion Oh my god. Oh smart. Yeah. Hold on to those TVs. Sorry. So if you've been mad if you've so fucking weird. If you had a TV on your doorstep. Well, I'd be confused. And then I would look at

surveillance footage and I'd be even more confused. So would you keep the TV? No. I'd probably think there was something in it or something wrong. Right, like something's fucked up with it. Yeah, that would create me out big time. Like I see was something in it or something wrong. Right, like something's fucked up with it. Yeah, that would create me out big time. Like I see the humor in it from afar like this, but if it was me that it was happening to, I'd be like, that, fuck that dude. Wow, it's just one, one time would be that bad. We also live in a city that had package buildings too.

Yeah, that's like a year ago. Yeah, a year ago. Yeah, about a year ago. Yeah. It was weird. There was that guy who was arrested at Peace Park a year ago. Yeah, about a year ago. Yeah. It was weird. There was that guy who was arrested at Peace Park last week. Did you hear about that? No.

Oh, he had a gun. He had more than a gun. He had a handgun, a baton, a rifle, and a bipod for the rifle and a scope, and an extra magazine of bullets for the rifle. I think it's like about to do a match. You and where's peace park? It's just left to West of campus off Lamar like a between like 29th and 35th. I think you had a warrant out.

Yeah, I had a warrant. Why did he are 15? Why did he tell them? He's a fucking crazy person, not a... There's no explaining that guy. I read my bike through there, like, eight, 12 thumbs a week. Maybe he saw him.

I may have. Yeah, it's so weird. He got arrested. Yeah, I guess he had, like you said, someone, I think I haven't said. He had a warrant for his arrest out in Houston already. So they had arrested him, because I guess, I think, out of everything he was carrying, I think the bat he had a warrant for his arrest out in Houston already. So they had arrested him because I guess I think out of everything he was carrying,

I think the baton was illegal. Well, because the gun was in a bush. The irony. So it's like they arrested him for that and then he had the outstanding warrant in Houston. My God. Which is so weird. But I think a bunch of laws are coming to effect in Texas September 1st. But it wasn't some weird social experiment like the dude that took all the guns to Walmart or whatever.

He doesn't look like a social experiment kind of guy. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I got you. Mm-hmm. Was he like a white dude in his 20s? Yeah, he does. Interesting. I think he nailed it.

Tristing pattern. Yeah. So weird. That's a very strangely specific Austin story. Yeah. Dude, I never heard about that. Do you hear that the pitch and putts closing down? They already had their last day.

Yeah, I think they're changing ownership, right? No. Oh, it's just going to be gone. They were, they there was a petition to get them, because they're going to put condos or something there. They're going to develop it. I'm pretty sure. What's it called Butler Park?

Butler Park, yeah. It was a game. It was a game that played in the past 80 years. Oh, it was 80 other years. 70 or 80 years, yeah. Butler Park, yeah. There's a game in the place. They've been there for 80 years. Oh, it's 80 other years. 70 or 80 years, yeah. We used to go there all the time back in the day. It's like, have you ever been there? No.

It's this little park like off of Riverside and Lamar. Like, you know, there used to be that talkabana there and it's like right behind there. It's right next to Peter Pan, Pitch and Puts. Yeah, there's a tiny little park and it was like a nine hole golf course. A nine hole Pitch and Puts. You could rent, you rented like a little wedge and a putter from them.

And you could walk around and with a cooler beer and just like hit golf balls for the fun. Like it wasn't like competitive. It wasn't scoring. I mean, it was like whatever you wanted. You know, it didn't matter. Like you have to worry about getting in someone's way. It was just like, if you just want to go drink beer and fake hit golf balls and like a little golf course,

it was a cool little place to go do that. Just a little par three, it was awesome. I think when I was living downtown, I went probably, I don't know, six times in the last two years before it closed down. I didn't, it was, it was really sad because that's a, I mean, I get it. That land has got to be super valuable,

but it was such an iconic old piece of Austin. And even, I don't know if you remember this, but remember they had that family of hawks that will come and they ain't like the last time I was there, which was maybe eight months ago. I'm a final hole. The hawk came and just landed and watched, I'd never seen it before. And it watched the whole fucking thing. It was so cool and so neat to be able to see it, like four feet away from you, just watching you play golf. And that's bummed it's leaving. Yeah, sucks. I was get bummed, it's a leave.

Yeah, sucks. I always get a, whenever I see a really big hawk, I was getting nervous that they're gonna take my dog. Yeah, I did. Cause I have small dogs, and it's like, they could easily grab my dog and fly off with it. He's not a leash, is that, isn't he?

Not in my backyard. That's fair. But I'm out there with them. So whenever I see a big hawk, I'm like, oh, you got to go in, let's go inside, start to like call the dogs back in. I feel like your dogs whenever I see a big hawk, I'm like, oh, she got to go in, come on, let's go in size. I'll just like, call the dogs back in. I feel like your dogs could fend off a hawk.

No. They don't have no idea what the hell happened. Get a attack from the air. They're pretty feisty. Can they really lift up that much weight? I think so. I think you hear about like, you always getting taken. Yeah, but they're like rats.

Yes, true. How much do I weigh? 13 pounds? That might be a little heavy. But I don't know. I saw a bald eagle in Oregon like swooped down to get a Piece of like a mouse or something in a park. I was that and that that fucking thing is up close is huge

You do not want to screw with a bald eagle. It could definitely lift 13 pounds I'm trying to see how much a hawk can pick up Yeah, I got you just That's the carbon footprint though. What's probably a lot lower than, uh, than beef. That a quarter counter, which is. Yeah. That's an interesting idea. 680 burgers for around 680 quarter pound burgers. So what is that? So 680 divided by four. Does anyone else have 170 pounds of beef. How many nuggets do you guys think you eat? Over a human of beef. I'll be honest with you, I had one when I first got,

when they first got there and it was delicious. And then as the nuggets started to cool, I they, that's something that would not fly. They lost their flavor. What's that? Oh, mustard shift. We had 3000 chicken McNuggets.

And I, 3000 nuggets. Sorry, 3000 nuggets And I had 3,000 nuggets. Sorry, 3,000 nuggets. I had probably six of them. Yeah. And I think I finished four. I was sick the next day. Yeah.

What did the rest of you have? They got 80. I didn't have that many, but I think it's just like, I'm not used to eating those. So when you do it, it's just like messes with your body. I also shoved a bunch of my mouth. I didn't eat those, but I think that's any sick. Really?

From contact, yeah. They're just very, it's a bunch of my mouth. I didn't eat those, but I think that it's sick from contact. Yeah, they're just very it's a lot of like it makes you feel roll of bloated and Kind of like Lothargic The other day speaking of a old Austin stuff The other day on the Austin subreddit someone posted a question and they were like did they're used someone posted and they wrote Did there used to be a top notch where the pterys is over like a 33rd in Lamar? No, it was Hilbert. It was Hilbert. It was definitely Hilbert.

Yeah. But I thought it was weird like how quickly people forget that. Yeah. If it was Hilbert's not that long ago. It was Hilbert's for fucking 50 years. Right. It's like in Pterys for eight. If that?

If that. Yeah. It was weird how nobody remembered and they're in someone's like, look, I found this picture from Google Street View. It's like, yeah, it's obviously Hilberts. I didn't, they didn't top notch by the oven or like the stovetop from Hilberts, that Hilberts and move it over to,

I feel like I ran around that. I don't know, I don't know. Like they moved some equipment from Hilberts to top notch. It's possible, I don't know. It was a while ago. I didn't want to go to top notch lately. I've been in a little while.

I've been there in a long time. I go to Hilberts, usually like once a week or so. I don't go that often. I get, well, because of Keto, I don't go that much anymore, but I used to get their strawberry shake a lot. I really like their shake. That Hilbert's by the office, but yeah, that Hilbert's by the office, takes forever.

That long. Every time I'm in the drive through, it's like, I'm not as well just, I should have brought a folding chair. No, it doesn't take that long. You're exaggerating. Do you order something special? Bacon cheeseburger.

Do you feel like it takes a long time? You go there too. I've been there twice. And I ate inside the restaurant, so I don't know. I have no experience to drive through. Can you divide the amount of burgers by the time on the plane?

So how many burgers per? So 680 burgers. This dates a 10 hour flight. Yeah. So you're doing 68 burgers an hour. So a little over a burger a minute. You can do it. It's a lot.

That's not a plan yet to eat one burger every day. But before, otherwise the plan would crash. Before you land in London, you need to eat these 680 hamburgers. Now here's the problem. Obviously, it makes way more sense for you to save the environment and reduce carbon fiber by not taking that flight, right? But we also acknowledge with 7 billion people in the world, if you don't take that flight, somebody else will, that plane's still flying. So you probably should just stop eating hamburgers. I might.

You can actually affect change that way. Yeah, I've been just, especially if you're going to places that are made to order. Just unhappy with the amount of like I could I feel the way I'm like you. Oob is worse than just driving because the car has the drive to you before you get it. Oh, truth you. Yeah. Yeah, I got to do something. It's a nightmare. Just start all the all the beyond meat stuff's really good. I just like vegetables are fucking awesome. The older I get the less I like meat in general. I mean, I still eat meat. Don't get me wrong, but I'm fucking awesome. The older I get, the less I like meat in general. I mean, I still eat meat, don't get me wrong, but. Man, but Dalio, any of you are in season right now?

I fucking love Vidalio, I'm sweet as fuck, dude. And at Whole Foods, I kept seeing Japanese Yams. Those are so fucking good. They're super sweet. How do you eat them? Awesome. Normally, what I'll do is, I do them a couple of different ways, the way I like the best is I'll cut them into thin rounds

and then just grill them. Just take them on the grill for 10 minutes or so. They're awesome. I did this thing the other night that you may want to try, especially if you want to eat healthier. I got a spaghetti squash and I cooked it for about 40 minutes and then like for about 20 minutes to, yeah, about 40 minutes.

And then I made this mixture of ricotta and mozzarella and Parmesan and onions and mushrooms and basil and marinara sauce and I just filled that into the Cut open spaghetti squash and then bake it for another 20 minutes with some Parmesan on top and then it's just like eating spaghetti Because you know spaghetti squash like spaghetti. It's so, and then it's just like eating spaghetti. Because you know, spaghetti's got shrimp, like spaghetti. It's so delicious and it's phenomenal. You ever made Buffalo cauliflower? I haven't, but I've had it before. I don't like Buffalo sauce. What?

I don't, that's why I don't eat wings. It's why I love Buffalo sauce. It tastes like diesel fuel. Where did you eat? The Buffalo sauce that tastes like diesel fuel. It smells like diesel. I was like, oh, I can't take it. It's a little strong.

Yeah. How does it taste like Eddie? It does the same thing to my nose. All it is is Frank's red hot and butter. What you do not like Frank's red hot and butter. I like Frank's red hot. I just learned something about you today. Yeah.

I thought you did. No. No, I don't. So Buffalo sauce is sauce and butter. Yeah, that's all it is. All right. I didn't know that either. Yeah, it's the,

Yeah, you said what's in Buffalo sauce? I could not tell you. Someone told me the other day that Jin was vodka. What? Didn't know that. Who said that? And why are they so wrong? And they said it was like flavoured vodka.

Like vodka. No. How's it told you that? It's totally it's a different alcohol. Who's the wise Jim? Why's Jim believe them? Do you know what? I don't know what's made from. It gets a flavoured vodka.

It's flavoured from Juniper berries, but I think it's like corn whiskey, isn't it? Or a corn alcohol. Corn alcohol. Who told you that? I don't remember. Jim. I remember being like, huh? Or grapes. Distilled gin.

Okay. What makes vodka? I'm trying to, I'm gonna compare and contrast it. I got it right here. Vodka. Most vodka today is produced from grains such as sorghum, corn, rye, or wheat. Some rotkas are made from potatoes, molasses, soybeans, grapes, rye sugarbeats, sometimes by products of oil refining or wood pulp process. Then, then, no way related. The still gin is produced exclusively by redestilling ethanol of agricultural origin with an initial strength of 96% ABV. Oh, come on.

And still, traditionally used for gin. All you. In the presence of juniper berries and other natural botanicals provided that Juniper taste is predominant. I wish I can remember who told me that. That's the calm weather. They would just mess them up. Maybe they were just saying it like tastes the same. It doesn't. But it doesn't. But it like it would taste the same without the Juniper or whatever. I don't know. Not a big Jin fan. I love gin. I used to love it. It was my favorite.

If I, gin's good. If that's my... Don't even go there. You're not going to go there. Hey, wait, I love gin very much. Hendrix gin was the shit. Speaking of things that you shouldn't drink, I saw the FDA released an announcement the other day.

I'm gonna load it right here. Oh, here it is. Drinking bleach will not cure cancer or autism FDA. Bored shit. I guess there's some product that people sell called Miracle Mineral Solution. That they say is chlorine dioxide and or chlorine dioxide.

And I guess they say that it's supposed to cure autism, HIV, AIDS, cancer and other stuff. And the FDA had to officially come out and say it doesn't. Isn't that what Martha dump truck drink or was that drain O? And Heather's bleacher drain O. I think you can have her since forever, dude. Millie was a bleacher drain O that Martha drank.

Draino. And also doesn't cure. Also doesn't care. Autism or cancer or anything. They don't drink anything like this. I can't believe that like the FDA has to make a statement like that. Yeah. But don't drink bleach.

It's the same. That's the same thing is putting a warning on a ladder that's like don't stand on one foot at the top. I thought that's a lot of the graphic of the guy. Yeah. Well, people need to be told to vaccinate their kids. So I can't really give anyone the benefit of that. Hot take.

Yeah. Fatal, that's a vax. Or so. You're knitting. You have some word just gal. It's like, hmm, vaccinate your friends. Not just the other one. Um, Justin Timberlake's wife.

She's not that bad. Just a good deal. That's good deal. Sorry. Yeah. She's not that bad. So that just came out a few weeks ago, right? Yeah. Can't believe that.

Did anyone come out and just reassure everyone that wind farms don't give you cancer? I think it's been an ongoing thing still, right? I mean, that misinformation is still being spread via one person, yes. I don't think it's being spread by anyone in power. What? It was spread last week at the

community. Come back again. He's always like, he's been going on about that for decades. There's like old clips of him in the 90s, like bitching about wind farms. I think ruined it.

Ruined in the views from his golf club. I think I was, what didn't, wasn't I out of the country when you said it this, this last time like when he came back up and you all told me about it on the podcast and I didn't believe you.

I thought that's why we're trying to fuck with me. Oh, oh shit. He keeps one up and himself. I like the bizarre, I'm gonna bring this up just because it pertains to your heritage, but I like the bizarre like handwritten notes he's been sending

to Justin Trudeau. Oh, you're like looking good, buddy. Why? I don't know about this. Yeah, because like he sends him like Max and Covers and stuff stuff and it's like looking hot. He sends it to the to the Canadian Embassy and they weren't sure if it was real or if it was a joke or what. He's sending him a junk mail. He's sending him fan mail. What's he trying to do? He said it essay with it. He's signing some back. That'd be funny. That would be really funny.

with it's definitely sinus and that. That'd be funny. That would be really funny. Yeah, I've ever heard about that like two weeks ago or something. So weird. I want to do that. These are weird times. Yeah, we live in times that we're in.

It feels like I'm living in a nightmare sometimes. Yeah, it's like, I can't believe the season of Black Mirror and we just don't know it. Yeah, like I can't fully this is actual real life. And that if there are enough people that made certain decisions for us to be here right now. We have seen a version of Trump who potentially has to get reelected.

What is the version of Trump gonna be like when he doesn't have to do that anymore? If, if, yeah, yeah, you're presuming that he would be reelected. Well, yeah, if you guys aren't that much better off either. Yeah, I'm not. You're not a fucking Korean. Korean a Brexit very quickly.

As a border policy in the driver's seat. It's not a good time all around, but I was at a second term Trump is gonna be a a good time. All around. But I'd say a second term Trump is gonna be a really bad time. I don't know, I must admit, I don't know a lot about Boris Johnson, but I watched that John Oliver piece on it. It was interesting, it was really fascinating.

Makes you really wonder about the guy. I haven't seen that one. He did it, it was like two weeks ago in his show, or maybe a week ago, but it's basically, he did like a next post day about how it's all probably a gimmick and he's really, really smart, and this messed up hair and the clothes and the thrac.

And the bumbling is too distraught. A cough full of trash. Like they gave it actually a really potentially insidious example, right? Yeah. So you think about Boris Johnson and the Brexit campaign, the leave campaign. And the big thing that I always think about,

and a lot of people think about, is the bus with the light printed on it. That, you know, we're gonna say $600 million, quid. How are a million? NHS. Right. So, like normally, when you think of Boris Johnson,

and you think of a bus, you think of that. Oh, they give him hanging like, right. So, like stuck in the heat guy. He did an interview after that. I don't remember when the interview was, where they asked him like, the interviewer asked him, what do you like to do in your spare time,

like if you want to relax and then why not? What do you do? He says, well, what I like to do is I like to recreate like miniature models of buses. And they're like, what? And it's like this really weird awkward. XJ-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3 making buses and not wanting to show his buses because he's embarrassed. And then John Oliver says, well, you know, a reason why he probably did that was, so if you Google, Boris Johnson bus,

you get that video clip instead of a picture of the NHS bus. The NHS bus from the Brexit leave campaign. It's that's deliberate, that's incredibly smart. Right. It's like there's no clear evidence that that was deliberate, but it's the kind of thing where you would manipulate perception.

Yes, and there's a lot of like really interesting examples of how the dude might just be the most well-crafted, brilliant fucking, devious dude ever. He was the MP of Henley, which is a tiny town next to right near mine. I used to come to my school because he was low-quampy. He didn't give off that vibe. Yeah. No, not at all. What vibe did he give off? It's a bumbling buffoon sort of and lost in my school.

But what was it they had like a like a preps school photo with him and David Cameron? Yeah. Yeah. It was him and David Cameron. Yeah. Yeah. He went to really good schools and a very great really good education. Yeah, it's born in New York He's an American. Oh, do you say New York? Yep Hmm he gave up his citizenship. I think because of tax reasons Because an American passport if you don't The worst things you could have it's super expensive. Yeah All right, well, what about time wrap up? Does anybody else have anything else? Don't want to bring up or talk about? We don't even talk about Tumblr getting sold

for $30 million. Oh my God. Is that true? Yeah, who bought? Yeah, one billion dollars. Who's they sell them to? WordPress. They sold Tumblr to WordPress for less than $3 million. They bought it for over billion. $1.1 billion. Oh my God. That was like five years ago. Six years ago. What's there something similar where people have the opportunity to sell for like a couple hundred million and then said no.

And then later they were only able to sell for like a couple hundred million. Yeah, that happened. Yeah, my space, dig, dig, happen to a Napster, right? Oh yeah. They came back and yeah, it to a... Napster, right? Oh, yeah. They came back and, yeah. Um, that happens a lot.

Wow, good job, Yahoo. Why even sell it if you've lost a billion dollars on it? What else are you gonna do with it? Yeah. We have it by any amount of money. It's like a three million on a billion? We could have put it in a tumbler. We could have had a whip round.

For all we know too, Tumbler might be hemorrhaging money and it might be, yeah, that might need to dump it to get rid of that. That lost off the books. Never mind, let's not crop from that. Shit, man. I think didn't, I think porn hub tried to buy it? Yeah, I remember that. They tried to buy it, I think so.

Yeah, I guess that would make sense. That's the dude put the porn back on it. Yeah, just for that one reason. All right, well, that's it. We'll see you guys next time. Bye. Bye. Thanks for watching. Do you like apples? Describe the show to a newcomer in a more familiar way.
